Planning and Implementation of Private School Participation Diagram
Basic steps:
- Identify student needs
- Provide supporting data for student needs
- Design Program
- Implement Program
- Evaluate the Program
Invitation to Participate - A letter of invitation and survey request for enrollment data is sent out every year around April to all non-profit private schools within the TUSD boundaries.
Consultation occurs between the non-profit private school and LEA coordinator before the new school year begins. They engage in meaningful dialogue regarding the services provided by the LEA to the non-profit private school. Topics listed in the Affirmation of Consultation form are discussed:
- How children's needs will be identified
- What services will be offered
- How and when decisions about the delivery of services will be made.
- How where and by whom services will be provided
- How services will be assessed and improved based upon assessment results
- Size and scope of equitable services
- Proportion of funds allocated for services
- Method for determining poverty data (Title I only)
- Equitable services to teachers and parents
- Thorough analysis of the views of private school officials regarding third-party contractor and written explanation by the LEA if the LEA disagrees with the private school officials on the use of a third-party contractor.
Evaluation - At the end of the school year, using the evaluation tools developed during the design process, provide evaluation report and/or sample evaluations to LEA coordinator through consultation meeting or correspondence.
